When a person is forced to use deadly force and deadly weapons in self defense both physiological and psychological factors and subconscious training take over and often control how the incident will turn out.  

When a person is under extreme stress such as when he is forced to use deadly force and deadly weapons reality becomes distorted.  Often items such as time will distort and seconds may seem like minutes, distances will seem shorter or longer.   Eye witness testimony of any person that was under such psychological and physiological stress is very poor.   Yet you will be questioned and your statements will be used against you in court if you make any statements after you have used deadly weapons or deadly force in self defense.  Under extreme psychological  stress people do not make thinking and conscious decisions and instead resort to subconscious habits or training. 

For these reasons, training for using deadly weapons and deadly force in self defense is important.  The training and knowledge that you have is a factor in making any legal defense for you under the law.  If you did not know that a person was a threat then you do not have the right to use deadly force in self defense because you were not in fear of your life when you used deadly force.   That is why taking just a concealed carry class is not enough.  You may have the right to carry a firearm concealed by virtue of a license but you may go to prison if you don't understand the law.    

The concealed carry manual and powerpoint can be downloaded just as all of the other law manuals that our office offers on Divorce, Bankruptcy, Lemon Auto and Personal Injury Cases.   We do ask for your comments and suggestions to help in making this manual.  Our main website is bankruptcy-divorce.com for all of your legal information.
